Chris Rainey Accepts Plea in Stalking Case, Status at Florida Unclear

Filed under: Florida

Chris Rainey reached a plea agreement with prosecutors that will allow the University of Florida receiver to avoid jail time for his arrest on aggravated stalking earlier this month.

Under the deal, Rainey will have to avoid any more legal trouble for six months, perform 10 hours of community service and undergo anger management classes, The Gainesville Sun reported on Monday.

Florida coach Urban Meyer, who had kicked Rainey off the team after the arrest, said earlier Monday that Rainey would not play against the University of Alabama on Saturday.

"Chris Rainey is still not a part of this team," Meyer said. "He's definitely out this week."
